Having been affixed with Nintendo's veritable seal of approval, PowerA's controller options provide good quality at impressively budget rates. In our PowerA Enhanced Wireless Controller review, we praised the wide variety of officially licensed and eye-catching designs. As well as its solid build quality and large battery life.
Meanwhile, the wired option is a budget pad we're confident in recommending, once again owing to strong build quality and an impressive array of designs.
